2019 Best Schools in St. Louis CountyAbout this List

The Marshall School

• Private School
• Duluth, MN
• 4-12
• 23

Senior: Marshall School is a great academic school that offers many resources when it comes to education. The school offers a lot of assistance and hands-on learning for every subject. The teachers are very flexible and help accommodate to every student. If I could change anything about the school though, I would change how much the administration controls things, and give more a voice to the student body.

Memorial High School

• Ely Public School District, MN
• 7-12
• 12

High School Senior: This school might not have all the opportunities that some larger schools have, but that lack has taught me to work for success on my own. I have a sense of self reliance that will carry me through college because of this school. I have also had some of the greatest friends in this school, which is the main reason I wouldn't give it up for a different high school experience. The small scale of it has allowed me to have personal relationships with teachers, general faculty, and all students in both my grade and the ones surrounding it. I also adore the town that the school lies in and I have grown up in, so I wouldn't want to give that up, either.

Harbor City International School

• Public School
• Duluth, MN
• 9-12
• 32

Alum: Harbor city is an Academically inclined school, and one of the best you'll ever find. While they have no sports team or anything they have several sport options. The teachers are the most understanding and supportive you'll find, and many times I'll be stuck and have been helped out of tough parts of life. The 4 years I spent there we're the best I ever had.

Hermantown Senior High School

• Hermantown Public School District, MN
• 9-12
• 75

Alum: When I attended Hermantown Senior High, my experience was a very positive one. The overall atmosphere was a relatively positive one, and the teachers and staff were all helpful. The classes were interesting, and it was made easier because of the many different options of classes we had. If I were to change anything about Hermantown Senior High, it would have to be to somehow create stricter bullying policies. I, personally didn't experience much bullying during my time in high school, but I do know that many did. Hermantown does have safe places to go and the counselors are incredibly helpful. I also know that there is no way to completely eradicate bullying, but maybe if students who are victims of harassment felt there were safe places to go or knew about them, it could help.

Senior: Proctor Senior High School is an overall nice and welcoming school. In our school, We recently added a new part of the day called "power hour". In that hour, you get lunch, and have the ability to find a teacher, and receive help with your academics. Every teacher I have met at this school was as welcoming as they can be, and none of them have had any sort of negative impact. If they are a "hard on you" teacher, they do it to show they care and are willing to push you to be the best. The people at school are welcoming when you first enroll. They are willing to help you find your class, help you with your assignments, and be there when you need someone. The guidance counselors are there to help, and when you are talking about what interests you for college, they encourage you. I've had an amazing time going to Proctor Senior High School, and if I had to go through high school again, it would be at Proctor.
